Mike Tyson to be inducted into WWE Hall of Fame

Boxing legend and pop culture icon “Iron” Mike Tyson will be
inducted into the WWE's 2012 Hall of Fame class on March 31 in Miami, WWE
announced to major media markets throughout the nation Monday. Among the most
decorated pugilists in history, Tyson established his place in WWE lore in 1998
when he served as a special “outside enforcer” for the WWE Championship main
event of WrestleMania XIV between Shawn Michaels and “Stone Cold” Steve Austin.

Long before his appearance on The Grandest Stage of Them All,
however, Tyson made his name in boxing, initially taking the sport by storm in
the 1980s. Within the first two years of his professional career, Tyson amassed
a 22-0 record, winning 21 of those contests by knockout.

In 1986, at age 20, “The Baddest Man on the Planet” captured
the World Boxing Council title to become the youngest heavyweight champion in
history – a distinction that stands today. The very next year he became
the sport’s first Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion, winning the top prizes
in both the World Boxing Association and the International Boxing Federation.

Tyson’s first foray into sports-entertainment – a memorable appearance
on Raw in January 1998 – produced one of the most indelibly chaotic scenes in
WWE's history, as an icy staredown with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin
dissolved into a wild pull-apart brawl (WATCH). Often credited with ushering in
WWE’s Attitude Era, that incident led to Tyson’s involvement in the
WrestleMania XIV main event between Austin and then-champion Shawn Michaels.

Although all signs heading into the championship bout
suggested Tyson would align with Michaels (WATCH), the boxing great defied
expectations, counting the pinfall that made Austin a WWE Champion for the
first time. When Michaels disputed the decision, “Iron Mike” floored The
Showstopper with a knockout right. (PHOTOS | WATCH)

Upon his return to WWE in January 2010 as a special guest on
Raw, Tyson officially competed for the first time in a WWE ring. Teaming with
Chris Jericho against Michaels and his D-Generation X cohort, Triple H, Tyson
surprised his teammate and revealed himself as an honorary member of DX. That
night, it was Jericho who wound up on the wrong end of Tyson’s staggering
punching power. (PHOTOS | WATCH)

In recent years, “The Baddest Man on the Planet” has emerged
as a looming figure away from the squared circle, performing scene-stealing
cameos in The Hangover series in
addition to running a clothing line and starring in a gaming app.

The WWE Hall of Fame induction ceremony will take place on
March 31, the eve of WrestleMania XXVIII, at the American Airlines Arena. Alongside Tyson,
WWE legends Edge, The Four Horsemen and Mil Mascaras have already been
announced as inductees. (INDUCTION CEREMONY TICKETS NOW ON SALE)
